And then i thought, that’s what i’m going to use it on.
That’s bad and you shouldn’t do that, but you’re also a functional adult with disposable income. The homeless guy is obviously not. The money you give him he will use to remain homeless. If you want to donate money there is no shortage of non-profits that will use that money to actually help him, as well as other homeless.
Well, he lives in a box, what do you want him to do? save it up and buy a wall unit?
Like, literally anything else? Food, water, a blanket, a ride to a job interview, hand warmers, shirts, socks, toothpaste etc. etc. etc., not a lot of deep thought required there.
Point out the part of your previous statement that indicates you’re not telling homeless people how to live, and the bits that indicate you’ve done anything to assist them.
So you’re telling me you can’t point out the part of your previous statement that indicates that you’re not a professional clown with a master’s degree in kinesiology?
If he didn’t he would probably be already dead.
I don’t think this conclusion is less likely than yours. It also has the advantage to not give up to pesimism.
If he wasn’t using his begged money to survive, he wouldn’t have been a beggar for a long time. Is that easier to understand?
You think your personal opinion is reality but others’ aren’t? Maybe you should read your comment again to see how you didn’t either bring anything else than your personal view. Don’t expect replies to do better than you did.
Between two personal opinions, I’d rather take the optimistic ones, because it has more chances to be helpful.

So willing to tell people how to live but I bet you don’t lift a finger to help them.
What part of my comment led you to believe either of those things were true?
I’d like to know what part of your comment you think indicates otherwise.
What part of your comment do you think indicates that you’re not a professional clown with a master’s degree in kinesiology?
So, you can’t?
… can’t what?

He will use the money to keep surviving.
I’m all for giving to homeless helping non-profits though, like the ones which serves them food.
And how did you come to this conclusion about this completely hypothetical homeless man?
If he didn’t he would probably be already dead.
I don’t think this conclusion is less likely than yours. It also has the advantage to not give up to pesimism.
That makes absolutely no sense.
I see, so we’re just setting aside reality to be “optimistic”. That explains it.
